So I have wasted hours looking at skills, devotion ect trying to come up with a build I like. (just got the game a day ago)
I think I have one, but its got MOSTLY +electrocute damage and a lot of %lightning damage and chance on hit for %lightning damage.
I found through google/forums that %elemental will boost lightning, the question is will elemental or lightning boost electrocute?
I saw electrocute will not boost lightning, but will lightning/elemental boost electrocute??

In essence…No. Elemental and Lightning will not add to Electrocute Damage. That said, if you’re focusing Lightning, you generally get enough flat Electrocute to be significant, and the two major Lightning Auras have Electrocute in them.
Generally, if you want:
Cold…Don’t, it doesn’t have the support to work (well) right now.
Fire…Then you’ll have about even Fire and Burn in many cases, because Burn is heavily supported with Fire.
Lightning…Then you’ll have some Electrocute, but the major thing for Lightning is the various “chance of X% lightning damage” buffs…It’s like a crit chance within your crit chance, notably featured on Stormcaller’s Pact and the third portion of Trozan’s Sky Shards. It’s not uncommon to see insanely high numbers on a TSS build, from the rare occurrences when those builds crit, roll the chance on Pact, roll the chance on Trozan’s, AND get the top rolls on both chances. It gets pretty high.
What skill are you looking at, in particular, that you’d like to focus? Generally each skill has various options, and a few similar skills that also have various options. We’re generally a nice bunch around here, as long as you’re polite, so nobody will mind helping out or making suggestions.
i havent figured out devotion yet… but I was thinking viper was a good place to starts giving enemies - elemental resists tho, since it wont help electrocute maybe its stupid…
Im going druid (ranged 2hand) I havent decided on either savegry or primal strike leanding more towards savagery but it adds tuns of electocute and % lightning with minimal light damage. I also have tornadoes

This is the build im going, haven’t quite figured out devotion yet, only thing i know im getting is viper (but maybe not, since it wont really help electrocute)
resist reduction for elemental or lightning such as viper does work for electrocute damage.
Thanks, that’s good to know!
If anyone has the time/knowledge to look over my build and offer and suggestions I would love to hear them!!

What I want is 2hand ranged build, I’m currently lvl 39 I have druid picked so I can change points but not classes so lightning it is!
As of right now I just cast tornadoes and run in circles because I found an axe with +68% lightning and im super squishy
